Over the last 30 years Terrence Howard has been a Black Hollywood staple.
Bringing unforgettable characters like Quentin Spivey (‘The Best Man‘), Cameron Thayer (‘Crash‘), Djay (‘Hustle & Flow‘), James Rhodes (‘Iron Man‘), Lucious Lyon (‘Empire‘), and many others to life over his three-decade tenure, the veteran actor has not only collected top industry honors for his work but has even garnered Golden Globe and Academy Award nominations along the way.

And though he didn’t keep his word at that time, three years later he’s revisited the statement and assured longtime fans he’s for real this time.
